OFFICIAL CGMINER mining software thread for linux/win/osx/mips/arm/r-pi 4.11.1

I find very telling that the only responses I got here were after I said I fixed it and to just talk shit, basically because I'm upset. Very helpful. How about pointing out some of those posts. No you just wait for a troll moment then pounce. THANK YOU
TROLLS
VERY HELPFUL

Says the person who wouldn't post how their problem was fixed. Isn't that telling as well?

So you guys aren't willing to help me fix a problem on my one setup which is most likely different than every other setup because everyone's machine is different?  Well... Screw you guys... I'm going home.

What are you whining about?  This conversation had nothing to do with you.  Unless your the same person as GrapeApe using more than one account?!?!?

I believe he was being sarcastic and mocking the troll. Just my take.

Ah, sarcasm, difficult concept to grasp at times.

Sorry Alatvian.
Thanks Jashwaa,

Hi

I used CGMINER 3.1.1 with an radeon hd 5870 on RedHat EL 6.4 and all worked fine.
After upgrading to 3.3.1 I only get HWs but no shares. What has changed since 3.1.1?

Thx

Just to be clear, Windows is not a realtime operating system. 15ms? it used to be 10ms.

I don't remember Windoze having a 10ms timer?  It used to be 32ms, I thought?  But no an RTOS it is not, nor meant to be.

I'm pretty sure it was 10 on XP. I remember fighting to get 10ms of work done in a 300ms window. because of orphan control it couldn't be done. took 3 months to convice the muckity mucks it couldn't be done. Ended up using RedHat where we could set our own slice time.

You changed your driver.

See GPU-README. It's even in UPPERCASE, screaming out to be read.

I'm sure your correct.  OS/2 Warp 4 was 32ms.  Now with the newer kernels it's adjustable and I use 8ms.

Now back to regularly scheduled programming

I read the files and did not find any hint. The driver is still the same.
I tried the old 3.1.1 one and it still works.

The 3.1.1 .bin files may have been from a previous Catalys/OpenCL combination that worked better.  To check that, back up the 3.1.1 .bin files, delete the ones in the running directory and re run CGMiner and let it build new ones and see if your performance is the same or not.

Older SDKs no longer produce valid shares with newer drivers.

Will the driver and configuration options for the Klondike be included in cgminer anytime soon?
Thanks!

Question:

I'm running a BFL Jalapeno; it's connected to a Centos-KVM session running Ubuntu. When i mine with CGMiner pointed towards Bitminters servers, it runs like a champ, though about 10% slower than it did when it was running on a Mac Mini. But bitminter's java app on the mac kept crashing every couple of days, so i'd rather give it a try this way, lose 10% of the performance (5 GH rather than 5.5 GH) but hopefully not come home and see a frozen java app sitting on my screen.

Now, my question is this: it runs fine when pointed at bitminter and generating bitcoins. When I attempt to point it at coinotron's servers in order to miner ppcoins, I just get stuck at the opening screen, saying it can't find any hotplug USB devices. But the same exact command, pointed towards bitminter finds the Jalapeno just fine and starts mining away.

Anyone have a clue as to that? Can a Jalapeno be used to mine other SHA coins if I use another miner besides cgminer? Or is it trully that specific that it'll only mine bitcoin's version of SHA (which i thought was more or less the same on all the other SHA coins?

wouldn't this be better asked in the bitminter forum?

Cgminer works fine with my jalapeño on bitminter

The issue arises when using cgminer to miner any other SHA crypto currency. I thought the 570 pages of relies in this cgminer thread meant people were discussing how to use it for various tasks? . Seems like its a cgminer issue since it launches with no problem when mining one thing yet complains it can't even find a USB device if I change what pool it's aimed at?

Well that thought may well be plausible.  But at the moment the developer is on vacation so it may be a while before he chimes in on the subject.  He should be back in about 5 weeks.

In the meantime did you try posting in the coinotron thread, the alt currencies forum or read the readme's?  This is the Bitcoin forum so the main subject of discussion is CGMiner with Bitcoins.

But I'm sure there are a few lurking here that may be more knowledgeable with what you are trying to do.  Maybe they will chime in.

Just trying to make useful suggestions since your not getting any movement on your issue.

Good Luck,
Sam

I've been waiting 5 days for a reply from KnC about their status ... doesn't look good ...

I try enable onboard GPU for Display output, so my HD4670 have 100% available resources, basically become Dedicated OpenCL. but...

when enable onboard GPU, AMD OpenCL become unavailable... =(

Did you try putting a monitor or dummy plug on it?
